Windows 7: Explorer only shows 10 directories/files

All of a sudden something has changed in my Windows 7.
If I click on Documents in the Navigation window (left side) I then get a list of Directories but only the first 10 subdirectories are listed and I've got a link saying Show All ?? Objects.

It doesn't matter which directory I select I always get the first 10 and then I need to click on the link to show all.

I think this is how it's supposed to work. At least that's how it is for me also.

Edit: If I click on the link for D-Temp that opens the folder in Windows Explorer and everything is there as it should be. The folders listed in the Start Menu are there to give you a hint or idea of what that folder contains.

How the Navigation window works I can live with. My annoyance is with the list (right side).
I did a check and it was link Rich said: it's only Libraries that has this function.
So to solve it I created a Favorite of My Documents and voilą! Now I get a list with all subdirectories and files!

How do I get rid of them?:(

Went from 32 bit to 64, now explorer shows no filesI recently got a virus and had a stick of ram go bad at the same time (bad luck). I decided to scrap the 4 gigs of ram and ordered 8 gigs. This meant I needed to move from 32 bit Win 7 to 64 bit. I wiped the partition to completely remove the virus and installed 64 bit. I realized that Windows...

HomeGroup Directories don't REFRESH in Explorer x64I don't think my HomeGroup directories (shared with homegroup pc's) even when no homegroup pc's are logged in, get refreshed properly in Explorer(x64). When I delete a file in a homegroup directory it does actually delete but the screen doesn't refresh to display that the file is gone. Other...
